Welcome to HONORS Fizzix Homework Schedules!

Before doing the first official HW assignments, make sure you learn the online HW procedures. Visit Homework Syllabus & Directions. Make sure you set up a profile that includes "Teacher Email" as daryl_taylor [at] greenwich [DOT] k12 [DOT ] ct {DOT] us .
**Most of the "Destinations" assignments require the student to "play" with an online simulation. Play with the controls, investigate the variables, then write a report on the simulation and forward to daryl_taylor [at] greenwich [DOT] k12 [DOT ] ct {DOT] us. Make sure you describe the physics involved, not just a report on the simulation itself...
For the actual TEXT BOOK problems: Feel free to scan and send as an email attachment , FAX to 206-219-4238, or hand-in on dead trees in class.
